Are you looking for a fun way to spend your Saturday morning, but you don't have a lot of money to spend?  I have just the activity for you!  Lowes has a Build and Grow Workshop  every other Saturday.  Although there is no need to pre-register, you are able to sign up online (https://www.lowesbuildandgrow.com/ ).  Your kids will love you for taking them to a hands-on activity with the family, and you will love that it is a half hour of free fun!  The Lowes' helper gives your child an apron, safety goggles, wood kit, Lowe's activity patch, and certification of completion.  If you don't have time to stay, ask the attendant for a kit to take home.  Build a semi-truck or a football goal in the month of November.  After you are finished, your kids will be so excited that they might actually let you shop for awhile, without the normal fuss!
